Poor Iraq!

There is nothing that should console us about the blood-letting and sheer carnage that Iraq now advertises. Pray as we may that the new American strategy works, the prognosis is at best dire. But it is the extant reality that irks like hell.

Yes, no soul is insignificant, but unabatingly wasting women and children there must surely be the disgust of double hell. And it is. What goes on in Baghdad these days is deadening the human senses and damaging the real purpose of life...and living. Our combined tenancy on Planet Earth is cheapening sacred blood and burning the sanctity of reason - in a grand and gory betrayal of all FAITHS! It is at once a scandal and scandalising.

We must ALL repent.
